Profile

Kagerou Hino (火埜 陽炎 va:Vate pronunciationHino Kagerou; yh:Yaohu pronunciationHuoye Yangyan) is the rival character in Echo. He is a shrine monk of a spirit summoning organization. He felt overshadowed by Suzuka and wanted every possible chance to prove that he was an equal. That chance came when Suzuka defected from the exorcist organization and Kagerou is sent to pursue her. He made a contract with Red Rider and later Pierce. He later met Blanche and Sauron who helped him in his pursuit. In battle, Kagerou wields a rapier and can summon multiple spirits to aid him.

Kagerou has black eyes and short black hair. Since the beginning, he knew what he can do and what he cannot do, but keep striving to push his abilities to the limit. Contrast with the timid but serious Suzuka, Kagerou was flashy and stylish during exorcism. He prefers to spend his free time training with his spirits he borrowed from the spirit vault.

Kagerou's journey represents his conditioning through upbringing and society. His decision that he is making may be based on views of other people that he has accepted without considering whether they are really his own.

Kagerou's name was created to foreshadow his identity. He is 17 years old during the event of Echo, 169 cm tall and weighs 67 kg.

Lacking a bancho outfit I decided to take different approach and use a common samurai-esque outfit that would be possible withing the Taishou era. Kagerous combat style is closer to a saber swordsmanship than iaido or battoujutsu.
